Volunteering in 2020...

...it's the year to make it your resolution!

Here are nine reasons why volunteering is the New Year’s Resolution to make in 2020 and how getting involved with Maidenhead Bridge Rotary can help you keep it!
​
  1. You can contribute to a cause that you care about: Whether your chosen cause relates to supporting education, health, or arts and culture charities, tackling homelessness or other equally worthy causes, you can find Maidenhead Bridge Rotarians working in all these areas, doing good and making a difference.
  2. You will be doing good: Wanting to do good is the most common reason people give for volunteering. Volunteers make an incredibly important difference to charities and voluntary organisations across the UK – many rely on us to keep going.
  3. Use your skills to make a positive difference: Your financial expertise and the skills that you use on a daily basis in your working life can be of great benefit and help make a real difference.
  4. It’s good for your health and wellbeing: A range of research has demonstrated that volunteering can have a positive impact on mental wellbeing. Volunteering can improve mental health and help you live longer. The NHS recognises that helping and supporting others is good for mental wellbeing, recommending volunteering as a way to achieve this.
  5. Work as a team to achieve a worthwhile goal: Teamwork is important in the majority of job roles and so the experience you will get of doing this while volunteering will be CV enhancing.
  6. Meet new people: Volunteering is a great way to meet new people, whether they are the people you’re supporting or others that you’re volunteering with. It provides a great opportunity to  make new friends outside of your everyday social circle and feel part of a wider community.
  7. Try something new: There are many diverse volunteer opportunities out there – while some of them may be connected to your day job, others may be something completely different. Either way you will find yourself in a new environment, approaching issues from a different perspective.
  8. Learn new skills and boost your career: Volunteering will not only give you the opportunity to enhance existing skills but will also mean you learn new ones and gain experience in a different sector.
  9. Worthwhile way to spend your time: Doing something to support others is undeniably an important and worthwhile way to spend your time.  No matter what time you have to spare there will be a volunteering opportunity to suit…
 
If you want some of the above, then we’d love to invite you to one of our events so you can find out more about Rotary, meet new people and get involved.  Find out what's coming up here...
